Title:
Refuses to open files where the character encoding is not recognised
Status in Light-Weight Text Editor for Gnome:
Fix Released
Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
In Gnome Gedit 2.16.1:
When trying to open an ascii text file that, amongst useful mathematica code,
has a few corrupt characters, gedit refuses to open the file and insists that
the user select the correct character encoding.
Desired behaviour:
Open the slightly corrupt file for editing and display a special symbol where
the characters have not been recognised using the current character encoding.
A warning stating the character encoding was not recognised would be helpful
but should not prevent gedit working.
